Boston by Subway
Boston’s subway system, known affectionately as the ‘T’ is America’s first subway system. The first green line subway cars began running in a tunnel underneath Tremont Street in 1897. Park Street Station and Boylston Station were the first two to open - both sit at the bottom...

Boston, Massachusetts
Whenever we are on the East coast, Brett and I try to swing through Boston. We visited the East for Christmas and New Years so that we could see Brett’s family before we started our big adventure. We were planning at the time to hop on a sailboat and cruise the high seas for a few years, so the...

Photo Of The Week - February 25
Lots and lots of signs. Which way to go? This photo was taken right in the heart of Fountain Square, a small neighborhood just south of downtown Indianapolis. There’s a bike shop, a bowling alley, a diner, several restaurants - and, in typical Indiana fashion - easy access to the highway. I got...

Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
As part of our trip to Rhode Island we stayed with the wonderful Kai. Kai is an excellent hostess and the proud owner of an old school wooden ice cream maker. I really enjoy making my own food from scratch, if I’m not taking pictures or out running I’m usually in the kitchen. But I can honestly...

The car has AWD, heated seats, heated side mirrors and heated windshield wipers. It has lumbar driver’s seat, decently low miles, and factory roof rack....

Photo Of The Week - February 18
A hungry biker peruses the menu at a local butcher shop/restaurant. I really enjoy the contrast of the modern bicyclist with spandex and helmet juxtapositioned with the old restaurant - complete with flower boxes and meat hanging in the windows. This photo was taken last July in Vieux Montreal (Old...

Photo Of The Week - February 11
On our visit to New England we took a drive up to visit my grandparents in Maine. Along the way we stopped off for a brief visit in Portland. We ambled around the streets of the waterfront area, and I found this great cobble stone street, Wharf Street, where there was some snow melt on the ground.

Wintry Rhode Island
As part of our trip out east to visit family, we had the wonderful privilege of spending a fantastic week with someone who is not technically family, but pretty darn close to us. Kai lives in West Greenwich, Rhode Island and works in an outdoor education program that is part of the University of Rhode...

“What now?” you ask…
As my last post explains, we had a great time in San Francisco last month. We enjoyed the trip, loved the boat and are ready to head out on an adventure; however, our adventure will not include sailing. We opted to withdraw ourselves from the running for crewing positions after we returned back to Indy....

Photo Of The Week - February 4
A photo taken in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana, right after one of our first snow falls of the year. I captured this during a transition period, when fall wasn’t officially over and the leaves were still falling but it was cold enough for snow. Just a dusting of snow, very light and powdery that...
